Description
Lostford House Farmhouse is a farmhouse built around 1824. It is constructed of red brick with some grey sandstone ashlar dressings and features a plain tile roof. The building has three storeys and includes a painted ashlar plinth, a raised eaves band, and a dentil brick eaves cornice that returns at the ends. There are integral brick end stacks with dentil brick bands at the base. The facade is arranged in a 1:1:1 bay configuration with a central break, showcasing 16-pane glazing bar sash windows that have painted stone cills and lintels. The central first-floor window is set in a gauged-brick round-arched recess. The central door has eight panels, with the lower two being beaded flush and the second from the top glazed. It is flanked by lozenge-ornamented pilaster strips with reeded caps and an impost band, topped with a wreathed radial fanlight and a painted ashlar Tuscan porch that features an entablature and blocking course. At the rear, there is a two-storey wing with an integral brick end stack. The interior has not been inspected. Additionally, there is an L-plan range of farm buildings at the rear, dated "LM / 1824," which likely indicates the same date for the farmhouse.
